ISLAMABAD: The government has announced plans to roll out 30 free Wi-Fi hotspots across Islamabad by December 2025, aiming to improve public access to high-speed internet.

The National Telecommunication Corporation (NTC) briefed the National Assembly’s Standing Committee on IT, stating that work on the project is progressing rapidly and the facilities will be fully operational within the stipulated timeframe.

Officials said the initiative is part of the government’s broader policy to strengthen digital infrastructure in the country.
